ABSTRACT FSM-the Field Signature Method-is a relatively new method for continuous monitoring of corrosion attacks and cracking of pipes, pressurized vessels and storages tanks. The method is now beeing developed for monitoring of stress corrosion cracking of welds in ammonia storage tanks. NH 3 -SCC is a corrosion mechanism consisting of an anode (metal dissolving) and a cathode (oxygen reduction) reaction. This reaction is not the same as hydrogen cracking. â¢ Initiation and propagation of NH 3 -SCC requires liquid ammonia, oxygen and tensile stress.
